BARCELONA — "Every swarm needs a face," declares the post announcing Visma-Lease a Bike's new bee mascot , "and every face needs a name." Confusing proclamations aside—the defining characteristic of a swarm is its facelessness—the opening stage of the 2026 Tour de France was one for the insects.

Whether Boston Celtics fans like it or not, Paul George is among the team's biggest additions this summer. George still has some good basketball left, but his reputation for being fragile should make Celtics utilize him like they did with Al Horford.
The danger in taking a few days to gather up everything that happened in a recently completed month is that even though the box is closed, it might not be airtight, and the performance over the first fresh week that follows can color it, if not contaminate it. Case in point: The White Sox posting an over-.500 record in June is a triumph. Not only is it a second consecutive winning month for a team that had gone 17 months without one , but they kept their heads above water during the toughest...
The Las Vegas drafted two wide receivers last season who got a chance to see the field in 2025. Fourth-round pick Donte Thornton Jr. got to see the field the most, but his lack of production led to him falling down the depth chart by the end of the season. Thornton Jr. was always a […]
